The Brontë Parsonage Museum in Haworth, West Yorkshire is set to reopen tomorrow following a major restoration project to recreate the 1930s former home of the Brontë family.

Once home to the literary family, the house has been restored to looking much as it did during the main period of the Brontë family's occupation in the 1830s and 40s.

The house will also include features introduced by Charlotte as part of her facelift for the house during the early 1850s when she began earn money from her novels Jane Eyre, Shirley and Villette.

Led by historic interior design consultant Allyson McDermott of the McDermott Studio, it is the first major redecoration in 25 years.

A highlight of the newly restored museum includes six personal letters written by Charlotte Brontë, bought by the society for £246,000 last year, which will be displayed for the first time.

Ann Dinsdale, collections manager, Brontë Parsonage Museum, said: "This is the culmination of a two year research project. The new rigorous historical research and scientific analysis resulting from this project has informed bespoke wallpapers, new curtains and painstakingly woven rugs.

"Objects from the Brontë Society collections will be displayed for the first time in this new context and familiar works will be reinterpreted."

The museum is maintained by the Brontë Society in honour of the Brontë sisters - Charlotte, Emily and Anne Brontë.
